Product Description
Details
A blend of Merlot, Syrah, Tempranillo and Cabernet Franc, Petit Caus Negre is the entry-level red wine of Can Ràfols dels Caus.
Made from grapes coming from three little plots: Sinia, Plana Gran and Avellaner, this Spanish red wine showcases the terroir characteristics of Massís del Garraf, a subzone of DO Penedès.
Each plot was separately harvested and vinified. The grapes were fermented using indigenous yeasts with frequent punch-downs of the solid cap of grape skins to extract colour and aromas.
After that, Petit Caus Negre 2021 was transferred into a bigger tank, where the blend was aged for some months, and finally bottled after a gentle filtration.
This yummy organic red wine is great for a relaxed rendez-vous with friends.

| Nose | Somewhat shy at the beginning, this blend of Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Tempranillo soon exhibits some lively notes of wild berries, some spicy notions and dim mineral undertones. |

I drank this wine in a visit to the high-tech Can rafols winery. I enjoyed many of the high-profile wines of the company, but this I found incredible for the price. It has since become one of my everyday wines.
